Just a reminder there is a patterning assessment tomorrow. Students can review using the textbook questions posted yesterday and they can review using Khan Academy .

Science: Finish Wanted Ad

Language: News Report on something that happened in your life. Tomorrow students will be given a topic to write a News Report on that will be assessed. They are encouraged to follow the success criteria to develop the best product possible.

Success Criteria

I used the conventions of a newspaper report to write an interesting news article:

headline; date; byline; place line (optional); facts not opinions; written in third person; and photograph/picture (optional).

I wrote a good lead paragraph that gives the most important details and includes the 5 W’s (who, where, when, what, why).

I wrote at least 2 body paragraph giving more information to expand on the details provided in the lead.

I wrote a concise closing paragraph.

I included a quote that helps place the reader at the scene.

I used a variety of sentence types.

I varied the beginning of my sentences to make my writing more interesting.

I edited and revised my work carefully using CUPS and ARMS

I provided a clear picture for the reader; with well-developed ideas.
